You should take them off to remove the under plastic covers, if not you'll be buying new ones.

I would recommend removing the cam sprockets and doing it right. If you keep the timing belt on you should be able to impact the bolts out with a little heat. Also get a 1/2 hex don't get a smaller one and reduce the 1/2 drive as that absorbs the tq.
